Entertainment: I really want to make progress

"Mr. Han, don't talk nonsense about the twelve gold medals."

Zhou Yutang's expression twitched slightly: "I'm here, now I can talk."

"Haha, just kidding, look you are serious."

Han Sanping said calmly: "No hurry. Come, you first try the tea I just ordered from an old friend. It's very delicious."

Pushing the steaming teacup over, Han Sanping narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Taste it first."

"good."

Zhou Yutang took a sip.

The mouth is mellow, the aftertaste is sweet, and the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth.

The tea that Han Sanping can produce will certainly not be of low quality, and is probably not available on the market.

"When the time comes, you can bring some back and I'll install them for you."

"No reward for no merit, Mr. Han."

Zhou Yutang put down his teacup and laughed.

He is also very clever. He has been dealing with Han Sanping for so long and has a deep understanding of him.

Generally speaking, according to the normal procedure, Han Sanping would only send tea when he was leaving.

This time, I came right up and gave him tea. It was obvious that what I was going to talk about might be quite important.

"Why don't you get any credit?"

Han Sanping laughed: "Just a few words behind closed doors. Last year's "Latent" and "Snow Leopard" in the second half of this year were praised at the meeting. They were very good."

"That's the spirit of President Han's instructions. I'm just responsible for executing them."

"Okay, don't follow me like this. It's like this. The movie "Big Shot" you made also attracted the attention of the above."

While making tea, Han Sanping talked about what happened this time: "It's like this. I recently held an Asian cultural exchange seminar. At the end of the meeting, it was decided that China would take the lead and make a co-production of a blockbuster film with South Korea to deepen the relationship." Promote cultural exchange."

"Then what?"

"Then I recommended you."

"."

After Zhou Yutang heard this, he was a little speechless: "Mr. Han, don't be joking. If you don't hire the three major directors for a project like co-production of a blockbuster, why should you hire me?"

Han Sanping smiled and said, "That's right. There were a lot of opinions at the seminar, and those three were mentioned. Zhang Yimou got a lot of votes. It turns out that he has a movie over there that is already casting, and is about to start shooting."

""Thirteen Girls in Jinling"?"

"Yes, his movie will start filming at the end of the year, and he has cooperation with the United States."

"And where is Director Feng?"

Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.

In fact, after the Olympics, Zhang Yimou's first comeback film was originally this film. However, due to preparation time and contacting foreign stars to participate in the film, he made "Three Guns" first and then "The Hawthorn Tree", which was postponed to two It was officially launched today, years later.

The male protagonist is an American and has become the savior of Chinese women.

Zhang Weiping kept pushing the gimmick of a Sino-US co-production, saying that he had been in contact with Hollywood for a long time. One moment, Tom Cruise was confirmed, and the next, Leonardo was close to starring. In short, it made a lot of news.

"Feng Xiaogang also has a big project in hand."

"Mr. Han, after this film is finished, I am going to take a break."

Zhou Yutang declined politely: "I'm going to the United States, and I have some personal matters to deal with there."

"If you don't want to delay your affairs, you can finalize the project first."

Han Sanping said earnestly: "Young people, you should put your career first and not indulge in the love of your children. Look at Zhang Yimou, at such an old age, there is no rest at all. He will start a new movie soon."

"."

Zhou Yutang was speechless.

Lao Mouzi is really energetic.

"The Hawthorn Tree" has just been released, and "The Thirteen Hairpins" immediately followed without any rest.

"What about Director Chen?"

"You mean Brother Kai."

Han Sanping's mouth twitched slightly: "Let him make a blockbuster."

The glorious achievements of "The Promise" are still vivid in my mind.

Although Brother Chen Kai has deep connections in Beijing circles, this time the higher-ups want to produce results, so it’s useless for you to have connections.

Seeing that the situation was almost over, Zhou Yutang showed little interest, and Han Sanping simply cut to the chase:

"You also have your advantages. "Big Shot" was released in South Korea and exceeded 1 million viewers in 3 days. It has broken the box office record in South Korea for being the fastest movie to reach 1 million viewers."

"Let me tell you the truth. This time, the higher-ups spoke up and called your name in private, saying they wanted young people to shoulder the burden."

"So, this matter will be of great benefit to you, do you understand now?"

"."

After hearing this, Zhou Yutang was helpless.

In terms of fame and qualifications, the three major directors are undoubtedly above him.

However, "Big Shot" is now soaring at the box office, with such momentum that Zhou Yutang can already be regarded as a popular commercial film director in the film and television industry.

After understanding some of the details, Zhou Yutang went out carrying a bag of tea.

then.

I had a meeting with Han Sanping.

Many people came and Balabala talked a lot.

It mainly means that time is urgent and the task is arduous, giving encouragement and looking forward to the future.

After a few key points, he said that the higher-ups would give full support to promote this matter.

A meeting like this can last for half a day.

Zhou Yutang was really convinced.

He understood why Han Sanping asked him to go to the toilet before the meeting.

I went back and summarized the requirements of the meeting with Han Sanping.

The so-called blockbusters co-produced by the two countries are super large-scale productions directed by famous directors.

first.

The investment must be large, the lineup must be luxurious, and the scene must be beautiful.

The most important thing is that this big project must have big returns.

……………………

This matter will not be decided until the end of the month.

Zhou Yutang returned to the capital and accepted another talk show.

It was Aunt Yang Lan's "Interview with Yang Lan" that was included in high school English textbooks.

There are currently many domestic interview programs, and "A Date with Lu Yu" is one of the most famous.

Zhou Yutang has appeared on Chen Luyu's program, but he personally doesn't like Chen Luyu's style very much, so he chose "Interview with Yang Lang" this time.

He has watched this program before, and it is not profound, but Yang Lang's hosting skills and ability to guide interview topics are far better than Chen Luyu.

The most important thing is that Aunt Yang Lan is better at listening to guests' speeches and has a sense of proportion. She also often works hard to prepare materials before doing a program.

I met Aunt Yang Lan in the backstage lounge.

Wearing a white professional skirt, she is indeed dignified and intellectual, and somehow feels like a high-level intellectual.

"Yu Tang, nice to meet you."

"Sister Yang Lang, hello."

Taking the initiative to shake hands with Zhou Yutang, Yang Lang handed over some manuscript papers and said with a smile: "This is the question I want to ask today. You should read it over first to see if there is anything wrong. We can make adjustments."

Aunt Yang Lan is quite easy to talk to.

Zhou Yutang glanced at it and said directly: "Sister Yang Lang, do more publicity for the movie. As for the scandal, don't talk about it."

His scandals have always been a guarantee of traffic.

Almost every time I receive an interview, media reporters will intentionally or unintentionally bring the topic to the scandal.

"OK."

Although Yang Lang was a little regretful, he also respected Zhou Yutang's opinion.

After a brief communication, a few questions about the scandal were eliminated.

soon.

The recording of the program begins.

The recording studio of "Interview with Yang Lang" is smaller than that of "A Date with Lu Yu", and there is no auditorium, so it intentionally creates an atmosphere of heart-to-heart talk between the two.

"I have interviewed many celebrities in the entertainment industry, but I have never met anyone like him."

"He started from scratch. In just a few years, he earned wealth that many people can't imagine, and he also has an extraordinary status. He is doing everything from music, investment, acting, variety shows, and directing, and he is doing it very well. Good, so good that I find it unbelievable.”

"He is the boss of the most popular entertainment company nowadays, and he is also a popular king among young people. Recently, his second movie "Big Shot" directed and starred in is now being released. It has a good reputation online and he has also chosen more Face the audience directly and work diligently to promote the movie. Today, I want to talk to Zhou Yutang about his road to success."

"Welcome Yu Tang."

"Hello, Sister Yang Lang."

"Well, I just met you backstage and it really shocked me. Sometimes, your age is often ignored because of your achievements."

"My achievements are nothing to mention."

"Yu Tang is really humble."

Yang Lang smiled: "Actually, I have wanted to chat with you for a long time, but I never had the chance. Today you are also busy with the film road show and came to participate in the show. Thank you very much."

"I also like Sister Yang Lang's program. I'm here to promote the movie."

Zhou Yutang was very real when he came up, and Yang Lang even laughed: "I found that you are really diligent in promoting your movie. You are almost doing roadshows all over the country. You seemed to be in Shenzhen the day before yesterday, right?"

"Yes, because when I see the fans supporting me from all over the country, I feel moved in my heart and feel full of strength."

"In order to communicate face-to-face with movie fans, is this why you travel to various road shows?"

"It's mainly for the movie box office."

Zhou Yutang only plays the truth: "Movie box office is a very important indicator for a movie. It shows the audience's recognition of the movie, just like the score of the essay written by the students in the final exam. I am a candidate, The audience is the teacher who gives scores, and the higher the score, it proves that the audience recognizes what I express."

"That's an interesting statement."

Yang Lang nodded: "You actually debuted not many years ago, but you have become more and more mature every day, from "Want to See You" to "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" to "Those Years", including last year's "The Lonely Agent" ", many people say that you have redefined handsome men, what do you think of this?"

Speaking of which.

Yang Lan paused slightly, feeling really surprised.

Zhou Yutang, who was sitting in the recording studio today, didn't actually put on much makeup, just did her hair.

But he was wearing a simple solid-color T-shirt with a white shirt, and he was already so handsome that she was attracted to her heart.

Zhou Yutang said calmly: "Actually, I'm a bit face-blind. I always feel that I look ordinary."

"You seem to have mentioned in the interview that the phrase 'Gu Tianle is ordinary, ordinary Zhou Yutang' has been popular on the Internet for a while. It's a bit handsome without realizing it."

"Those are just jokes by netizens. In fact, I think a man's handsomeness does not lie in his face, but in his own wisdom and connotation."

"I think so too."

Yang Lang smiled sympathetically: "Only wisdom and connotation can enable you to achieve such an achievement. Many people, including myself, are curious, how did you achieve such success today?"

"I just want to make progress. I just started doing things. I don't think about success. I just think that I can fail, but I have to grow. Maybe someone will hinder your success, but no one will stop you from growing."

"You have indeed made great progress in the past few years. The box office of "Big Shot" has exceeded that of your first self-directed and starring movie "Those Years", and it has also broken several records. It is really an amazing achievement. .”

Yang Lang brought the topic back with ease: "What I admire very much is that the Zhao Tairen you played in "Big Shot" this time has a big breakthrough compared to the previous roles. I also went to watch this In this movie, I feel that the name of this character is very interesting. His name is Tairen, but there is no trace of benevolence and righteousness in him. Instead, he is full of hysterical cruelty and bestiality, which has aroused public outrage across the country. You also wrote this script. Was it intentional? For that?"

"Indeed."

Zhou Yutang took a sip of water and organized his speech: "This is a very complicated character, but he is definitely a bad person, so he has also been severely punished by the law."

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​creating such a character?"

Yang Langzhuangruo asked curiously: "I saw an interpretation of the movie "Big Shot" on the Internet, which exposed some hidden rules in the real estate industry, which impressed me very much."

"oh?"

Zhou Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly.

He seemed to feel that Aunt Yang Lang was quietly digging a hole for himself.

"For example, the Zhao Group's Taihua Real Estate made its fortune and operated by buying a piece of land first, and then building a house required various costs. However, Zhao Group's Taihua Real Estate did not pay directly, but transferred the land to I mortgaged it to the bank and got a large loan, so I had the money to build a house.”

Yang Lan spoke eloquently, "After getting the money from the bank, I used the pre-sale system to ask the house buyers to pay upfront, and successfully collected another large amount of money."

"If the Zhao Group immediately paid off the bank debt and built the house at this time, it should be able to make a lot of money, but the Zhao Group did not do this. He took the money borrowed from the bank, plus a large sum of money received in advance from the house buyer. With the money, go directly to purchase other different lands, and continue this cycle of operations until finally something happens to the Zhao Group. What do you think about this?"

“I’ve never done real estate, so I don’t know much about it, but the audience is really amazing.”

Zhou Yutang responded quickly, then drank water tactically to collect his thoughts, and then continued: "It is not suitable to express opinions on things that you do not understand. This will have a guiding influence on the audience, and do not match the things in the movie with reality. .”

Reality is far more magical than the movies.

But to be honest, ordinary people at the bottom are really interested in real estate insider information and the lives of upper class figures who are usually out of reach.

Therefore, last year's TV series "Snail House" did not receive any publicity before it was released, and it immediately became a phenomenon after its release.

"Big Shot" has the same meaning, except that Zhou Yutang made a very thorough publicity plan, which is also one of the important reasons for achieving such a high box office.

"Can you reveal your next work plan?"

"Recently it's been a road show to promote the movie, and then there will be a parent-child interactive outdoor variety show with Mango Channel."

Zhou Yutang paused and continued: "As for next year, there may be a new movie project, but it has not been confirmed yet, so it is difficult to reveal it in advance."

"I am looking forward."

Yang Lang looked very interested.

After talking about work, we talked about life again, and naturally we got to Zhou Yutang’s emotional aspects:

"Yu Tang, let's talk about your views on mate selection. There have been a lot of scandals about you since your debut. I'm very curious about what kind of girl you like. I believe everyone is very interested in this. It's convenient to reveal a little bit here. For a moment?"

This question was discussed in advance and Zhou Yutang confirmed that there was no problem, so she asked.

"I am actually very helpless about scandals, but the audience likes to watch them, and the media will create all kinds of scandals for me. I had a meal with sister Binbin, and the scandal spread. I took a photo with Tang Yan two days ago. , we are together."

Zhou Yutang shook his head and laughed: "As for the girl I like, I think the first thing is to be kind. This is a very important quality. Then it is best to be gentle and independent in thought."

"What about your appearance?"

"As long as the looks are passable."

"."

Yang Lan was completely silent at this time.

Zeng Li, Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Gao Yuanyuan, Fan Binbin

Those female celebrities you are rumored to have scandals with are too good-looking.

Each episode of "Interviews with Yang Lang" only lasts about thirty minutes.

Zhou Yutang recorded a lot of material in this episode. He talked about his work and life, from the past to the future. The content is substantial and there are many jokes. It is expected to be broadcast in two episodes.

After saying hello to the program team, it would be best to air it in mid-October.

Because the movie promotion strategy is also particular, by that time, the movie will have passed the National Day movie viewing peak period. After the program is broadcast, it will continue to increase the popularity and attract another wave of viewers to the cinema.

After recording the show, get in the car and go home.

It's back to sister Yu Feihong's home.

Wang Qiang, who has been following Zhou Yutang for several years, is the person who is most familiar with his boss's schedule, except for his assistant Mao Xiaoyu.

The map of the capital has been loaded into the brain.

Several places that Zhou Yutang frequents are specially marked.

Zeng Li recently went on a trip with her best friend Hu Jing. Gao Yuanyuan was on the set again, but Yu Feihong was in the capital.

After Yu Feihong's comeback, she successfully returned to the public eye with her stunning appearance in "Sword Rain".

Later, I received several endorsements and various business activities.

This sister is a very unique woman.

Mature, independent and beautiful, she borrowed money from Zhou Yutang when filming "Love Is Afterlife".

A few million dollars is really nothing to Zhou Yutang, but Yu Feihong, who didn't want to borrow his family background, almost had his entire fortune wiped out by that movie.

She worked hard to repay the money.

"Sister Feihong."

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Yu Feihong exercising.

On the yoga mat, a standard python pose.

It fully reflects her beautiful figure.

"Sit down by yourself for a while."

Yu Feihong continued to exercise intently: "I'm doing yoga."

Beautiful young girls can use their beauty to commit crimes with impunity.

Mature women usually pay more attention to maintenance.

Apart from his own talent.

Usually, various scientific methods such as diet and exercise are used to keep oneself in a good state.

This kind of mature woman is charming and charming, making people fascinated and fascinated.

Zhou Yutang didn't care about this, and went over to hug the princess.

Sister Yu leaned her head over, kissed him on the mouth, and continued to stick out her tongue.

Zhou Yutang understood.

No matter how independent and mature a woman is, she will always have needs.

……………………

"Yu Tang, awesome."

Jiang Wen's way of expressing congratulations was the same as the storyboard he drew, which was relatively simple and direct.

But these two words also truly expressed his inner feelings.

The average daily box office during the National Day holiday is over 50 million, and the box office of "Big Shot" continues to soar, sweeping the National Day schedule without any rivals.

Finished.

He picked up the glass and drained it in one gulp.

Yu Feihong, who was radiant after an afternoon of exercise, looked at Zhou Yutang's beautiful eyes with radiance.

But not everyone can convince the arrogant Jiang Wen.

Zhou Yutang also raised his glass and smiled: "Brother Wen, the next Spring Festival period is up to you."

"rest assured."

Jiang Wen patted his chest and laughed heartily: "Brother is very confident this time!"

After repeated failures, he also had doubts about Zeng himself. During the later stages of "Let the Bullets Fly", he had many exchanges and discussions with Zhou Yutang.

Now that Jiang Wen has seen the ferocious momentum of Zhou Yutang's "Big Shot", Jiang Wen also feels comfortable.

While I am happy for Zhou Yutang as a friend, I also feel that the capacity of the Chinese film market has grown much compared to last year.

This is also major good news for "Let the Bullets Fly".

I chatted with Jiang Wen for a while about the publicity plan.

After seeing the box office performance of "Big Shot", some professionals in the film industry even regarded Zhou Yutang's marketing strategy as a god's hand.

Jiang Wen also wanted to ask for advice and adjusted his publicity strategy to build momentum for "Let the Bullets Fly" in advance.

The Spring Festival period in December actually only lasts two months, and the preliminary publicity work for the movie can be started.

This movie also had tens of millions invested by Zhou Yutang, who also sincerely came up with many ideas.

After the small gathering, he declined Jiang Wen's invitation to have another drink and followed Yu Feihong back home.

"Leaving tomorrow?"

"Well, we have to continue the road show."

Zhou Yutang hugged Yu Feihong, resting his chin on her shoulder, and wrapped his fingers around Yu Feihong's shiny and soft black hair.

Beautiful women seem to have a seductive fragrance about them.

"Don't move, let me take a good look at you."

Sister Yu took the initiative to get closer and looked at her with those dark and clear eyes.

It seems to contain affection.

There is also a mature charm that makes people restless.

No need to say more.

Zhou Yutang is leaving tomorrow.

But tonight is still a long time.

It’s long enough for two people to do a lot of things.
